Cala del Porto Punta Ala

Cala del Porto has a timeless charm, and it’s clear the team is working hard to restore the hotel to its former status. We were told it once attracted royalty and celebrities — and with its elevated views and peaceful setting, you can see the appeal. The hotel appears to have recently changed hands and is clearly still in a period of transition. While refurbishment and service improvements take time, there’s real evidence of effort and investment. The service throughout our stay was genuinely impressive. Staff were warm, attentive, and eager to help. Virgilio deserves special mention — his service was warm, attentive, and professional. His friendliness and care really stood out. Dinner at Belvedere was a highlight: beautifully presented dishes, refined flavours, and a tranquil setting that made the evening feel special. The new chef is clearly bringing fresh energy to the culinary offering. We’d also like to thank Cristina, the hotel manager, for taking all our feedback on board and introducing herself personally. Some of our observations were quite direct, but they were received with professionalism and care. Gabriel was consistently kind and helpful throughout our stay. Whether chauffeuring us, fixing small issues in the room, or helping with the TV, he was always cheerful and willing to assist — a real credit to the team. The hotel is in transition. While some areas are being thoughtfully refreshed, others — especially the foyer of the new wing — felt oddly styled or in need of simplification. It feels like Cala del Porto is in the early stages of a thoughtful revival — and we wish them every success in the journey.

The rooms are soo cozy and beautifully styled, and the restaurant is a foodies paradise. Every meal was unforgettable, especially homemade pasta! The staff here goes above and beyond, always smiling, always ready to help. They really made our stay extra special!

Super service from night-end hotel! We booked a couples’ massage, and it was pure relaxation. The dinner was incredible, delicious food, a big wine list and a beautiful sunset. This place is perfect for a romantic escape. Couldn’t have wished for a better experience.

From the gorgeous pool to the private beach, every corner of this place is perfect for relaxing. Every evening we had dinner at the restaurant with incredible sunset view… it is postcard!! The very beautiful and cozy rooms create the feeling that you are participating in the filming of an Italian movie. An incredible experience! And I would really like to mention the very attentive and highly professional staff! Thank you all! You have made our vacation unforgettable!

My husband and I have just spent 5 fantastic nights at this stunning hotel. We had spent a busy tour visiting Florence, Siena, La Spezia and Cinq Terre. We were very ready to relax and be pampered and we certainly were at this gorgeous hotel. We stayed in a standard room which was beautifully decorated and had fabulous high quality furnishing/fabrics and bedlinen. If you are able to afford a sea view I think it would be well worth it. The decor through the entire hotel is so calming and beautiful. The staff are all wonderful, polite and friendly. Everyone from the managers to the waiters and cleaners. The outside pool area is also fabulous with lovely loungers and beautiful towels provided. Breakfast is plentiful with a good variety of continental and cooked options. Cooked breakfasts are freshly cooked and brought to your table. We ate twice in the restaurant and it was delicious. We were a little surprised to discover that all the beaches were private and the cost was €40 per day (incl loungers and parasol) however we found a quiet beach nearby where we managed to find a public area to have our daily swim and then return to the stunning pool area to sunbathe. As has been said this is a quiet area and definitely not for partygoers! After our busy tour it proved absolutely perfect for us. We found several lovely walks and also enjoyed browsing the beautiful yachts in the nearby marina. There are a few shops and restaurants in the marina area and we enjoyed several good/cheaper meals here too. Thank you for a super holiday, we highly recommend.
